2023-09-05 03:22:40Worthy to check it out if you are up for authentic Chinese/Hong Kong dim sum! Difficult to find a parking space especially during rush lunch hours! We ordered some of their specialty dishes:Malay Singaporean sponge cake 5/5Pork stomach with steam chicken 5/5Beef balls 5/5Black truffle duck 3/5Lotus roots mixed vegetables 4/5Steam pork ribs 3/5Shui mai dumplings 3/5Crispy pata Chinese style 4/5No reservations required! Recommend coming in early or come after 1pm to avoid lunch rush! Quick and attentive service! Good oolong tea!!

2022-11-05 03:32:06Visited here a second time.The double boiled soup is great. $25 you cant get anything better. The menu listed the soup serves 4 people, however I think its enough for 8!Everything else is good. The price is reasonable, and the service is also good. They charged 18% tips by default.

2022-11-25 03:45:47This is a good place for our New Year dinner, Cantonese restaurant. Ordering in advance can save us waiting time, great! The serving size was average, and six of us basically completed nine dishes. The dishes taste good and the service is attentive. Recommended and worth visiting again. Give a like!Update: … We got together there again this Thanksgiving. As always, we can make an appointment to be seated on time. It takes more than seven people to make an appointment. The dishes are still delicious and plentiful, and the waiters are as warm, courteous and quick as ever. Very good! Thanksgiving dinner for my family was very satisfying!

2022-10-30 19:12:47Sunday dim sum at 11:30am had a completely full and lively dining room. We had a short wait before being seated. Dim sum carts come around very frequently. Dishes were very good with large dim sum. Very noisy, but that’s part of the experience. Service is prompt and efficient.

2022-11-07 06:11:35Yummy food. Been visiting this restaurant for many years. Most of the time gor Dimsum. Once a while we have dinner here. The signature dishes here are the deep fry porck knuckle. Looks like this is Macau stlyle dish. The other one is wasabi chicken and pig stomach. Both are delicious. This place is very casual and many item in the menu. All the one we ordered were delicious.

2023-11-29 18:08:33I had 4 hours transit at SFO and didnt want to waste my money on not-so-good Chinese food at airport so we decided to make a quick visit to this restaurant, which was less than 5 minutes drive by taxi from the airport. Most of the customers were from local and Chinese, and everything was authentic and served right. You have to complete an order form at table at this restaurant, at least when I visited during the weekday. I am not sure if you have dim sum carts going around the tables on weekends. It was absolutely worth getting out of SFO dining at this restaurant. On the way back, we walked to the BART station for 5 minutes and rode BART back to SFO.

2022-11-24 03:50:52The fish was exceptionally good! So tender and delicious. The crab was very good, the fried rice was very good, and everything we ordered was very good. My family had a wonderful dinner here.

2022-01-24 06:57:41We had great dine in experience in the dim sum place. The dim sum are very authentic and the volumes are big enough for 4 pax to enjoy. (Aside from the egg tarts, which only serve 3 pieces in a dish/ per order) and the fish 魚腸粉(?), which is recommended by the waiter, is superb, but it might be too much for 4 pax with several dim sum to devour.

2022-10-23 22:34:11Typical Cantonese restaurant with the usual food. Got in and it was not what I expected from the outside. Outside is nothing to write home about but inside is clean and bright. There was a serving of tea and my uncle ordered the rest. I request the duck with truffle. He went seafood and it was the correct call. All of our dishes tasted fresh. We gotten shrimp, deep fried fish and a seafood mix on top of the duck we ordered. On the way to the bathroom, there was baners hanging on the side saying they were Michelin recommended in the past hence why their food tasted so good.Note: parking is terrible

2023-08-24 00:41:40Best cantonese food in bay area. I always bring friends from other places to this restaurant. Truffle duck is a must!!! Great service, fast speed, always full house. Dim sum is good as well. Usually no parking right in front of the restaurant, but you can park 2 blocks away in a public parking lot.
